[Verse 1] Glass walls carry every view A hundred towns come sliding through A harbor bell, a mountain pass My face floats back against the glass [Pre-Chorus] The map keeps opening its hands Each mile asks where I will stand [Chorus] Pick one platform, let the rest roll by One door open, a whole sky saying goodbye Every road is calling, every sign is bright I can’t ride every tomorrow in a single night Pick one platform, let the wheels decide All those other lives still streaming outside I’ll step down, I’ll step down While the train keeps carrying the maybe-me around [Verse 2] A red-roof town, a winter shore The life I’ve never tried before They flash like rooms I might have known Then vanish past the window’s chrome [Pre-Chorus] The map keeps opening its hands Each mile asks where I will stand [Chorus] Pick one platform, let the rest roll by One door open, a whole sky saying goodbye Every road is calling, every sign is bright I can’t ride every tomorrow in a single night Pick one platform, let the wheels decide All those other lives still streaming outside I’ll step down, I’ll step down While the train keeps carrying the maybe-me around [Bridge] No window can hold every view No choice can make the others untrue I’ll take the street beneath my shoes And let the passing worlds keep moving too [Final Chorus] Pick one platform, let the rest roll by One door open, a whole sky saying goodbye Every road is calling, every sign is bright I choose this morning, I choose this life Pick one platform, let the wheels decide All those other lives still streaming outside I’ll step down, I’ll step down And carry what I chose when the train rolls out of town [Outro] One door open One road begun
